Irrlicht Engine

Hi,

I am trying to find a way to use VBOs with ITerrainSceneNode, I tried to modify the sources but could not find a way to use them.
I know that the TerrainMesh can be used to do so, but I can't get it to work proprely and I need the getHeight function (no smooth...) plus I can't find the ...

I am using the system's API (posix and winsock)

Thanks for your answer !
I got all the information I need to keep going.

But I have another question :
Is it better to have 3 threads per client (server side) or only 1 thread.
For the 3 thread design (my new one) I have :
-1 thread send
-1 thread recv
-1 thread treat
The 3 threads are members of ...

Just like my terrain engine ^^
I guess it would be much easier to use a terrain Scene Node to do so, because a mesh is an unique entity and if you load the whole huge mesh at once you are going to have a really large amount of ram full and your render will be slow. You should split the map into ...

Thanks for your answers.

How your world is spatially partitioned.
I don't really get what you mean. If you mean area and zones I use a virtual grid (see the snipets Terrain Engine for more info).
* How frequently you expect the state of mobiles (players and NPCs) to change.
I am trying to make ...

Hi everyone,

I am trying to make an mmorpg (yes i know i am crazy), we can chat and all but i am having issues with player positions. I really don't know how to send player positions from server to client.
My idea was to make a singleton that contains a vector of every player id and a map with the ...

I got it working, made my own collision fonction ^^

When I try to remove the heightmap texture it just crashes, because the memory seems to be freed before.
I don't know where the leak comes from.
I will try to delete the selector maybe it comes from there ?
And it's 5mb per level loaded.

EDIT : I can't get the collisions working correctly...
Is ...

Hi,

I have been trying to find an easy to use terrain engine but couldn't find one so i made one.
It works wit 256x256 heightmaps. (You can adapt it to 128x128... by using the ratio 240/256 for the size but we will get to it later).
Basically the engine is going to make a virtual grid :

http ...

Made my own function.

Hi,

I am using listbox to make a chat box, but even with setAutoScrollEnabled(true); the autoscrolling does not work...

Thanks.

How do you change the arrows for a list box ?

Thanks for the good work

Hi,

I was looking for a celshader and found : http://www.coniserver.net/wiki/index.php/Simple_Toon_Shader_New
But I really don't get how to use it...
I think the shader was made for an other program but I am sure there is a way to use it in irrlicht...
I tried the official tutorials and still I don ...

Thanks.

Actually I guess It's gonna be hard to use this method because the collision are calculating inside the server so that nobody can hack.

Which method would be better?

I guess getCollisionPoint would be efficient but I never used it so I don't know how it does work.

Hi !

I am trying to create a FPS but when my bullet collide a mesh I would like to know which mesh it was so I can decrease his health !

How could I know which mesh has been collide.
I use ITriangleSelector.

Maybe It's not a good thing?

Thanks
